"I was silent all this time," she snapped, her voice trembling with a mix of rage and grief, her eyes glinting with an emotion long buried.
"But not anymore. Enough of your accusations. And don’t you dare—don’t you dare—drag my mother into this!"

The room had gone still. Mrs. Shah’s expression, which had earlier been a twisted mixture of arrogance and mock pity, now faltered.

Nandini took a deep breath, her fists clenched at her sides. Her voice lowered to a growl.
"And you want to know why I killed your bastard husband and that pathetic excuse of a son? You want the truth, Mrs. Shah? Then listen."

Her voice cracked, but she stood tall.

Financial instability turned their silent indifferences into loud arguments. My father, overwhelmed with losses and stress, became emotionally unavailable.

And that’s when he entered our lives—Mr. Raghunath Shah.
